Chicago

Bulls

Giddey missed the final five games of the regular season with a hamstring injury, but it’s his right ankle that’s the reason for the most recent injury update. The Bulls guard underwent the procedure on Wednesday, and the team’s timeline suggests he’ll be good to go when training camp opens in late September. The Bulls are searching for a new head coach after Billy Donovan decided to step down, but this should not negatively affect Giddey’s fantasy outlook for 2026-27.

The Wizards will be followed by the Jazz, Grizzlies and Bulls in the top four of the draft order. Washington had a 14 percent chance of landing the first overall pick, which was tied with Indiana and Brooklyn for best odds under the current lottery system. AJ Dybantsa, Cameron Boozer and Darryn Petterson are among the top prospects in the 2026 NBA Draft.

Acquired from the Timberwolves at the trade deadline, Dillingham struggled with a right wrist injury early in his arrival in the Windy City. However, the second-year guard made strides down the stretch, shooting just over 46 percent from the field in April. With Josh Giddey under contract for the next three seasons, Dillingham’s best opportunity at playing time in 2026-27 is likely to be as the backup point guard if he can win the job in training camp.

Due to injuries, Olbrich started the Bulls’ final two games of the regular season. While the rookie center offered limited value in Friday’s loss to the Magic, he recorded his first triple-double on Sunday. The 55th overall pick in last summer’s draft, Olbrich played in 37 NBA games this season. While not worth the risk in redraft leagues, his value in dynasty leagues next season will depend on whether Olbrich can secure a standard contract.

While Bulls fans hoping to see their team’s draft lottery odds improve more would have preferred to see less of Sexton after his acquisition, he recorded solid numbers on most nights. Over the final month of the regular season, he offered fifth-round category league value. Sexton will be an unrestricted free agent in the summer; his fantasy outlook in 2026-27 will depend on where he lands.

Recording his second 20-point game of the season, Dillingham finished Sunday’s defeat with his first career 25/5/5 stat line. The second-year guard was responsible for five turnovers, but the overall output was encouraging. With the Bulls needing to hire a new executive VP of basketball operations and a new general manager, it’s unclear what opportunities Dillingham will have next season. For now, he should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.

Williams was initially listed as probable and has now officially been cleared to suit up. He has had a couple productive outings recently, but he struggled in 27 minutes on Friday. He’ll look to bounce back in this one.

A starter in recent games, Olbrich is available for Sunday’s season finale. He should retain that starting center role since Nick Richards and Guerschon Yabusele remain out due to their injuries.

Sexton was initially listed as probable, so his availability against the Mavericks on Sunday isn’t much of a surprise. With Josh Giddey (hamstring) still out, Sexton is a must-start player in active fantasy leagues.

Of the three, Sexton has been the most impactful in fantasy basketball. He’s the one who needs to be rostered in active fantasy leagues for Sunday’s finale. Olbrich has moved into the starting lineup with Guerschon Yabusele and Nick Richards out for the season, most recently grabbing nine rebounds in Friday’s loss to the Magic. As for Williams, the former lottery pick logged 27 minutes on Friday, scoring eight points on 3-of-10 shooting.
